special education teacher Job opportunities for special education teachers--educators who design and modify instruction to meet the needs of disabled or gifted students--are expected to significantly increase, as indicated by the BLS. This growth is driven by an increase in the number of students, government legislation requiring training and employment for individuals with disabilities and heightened public interest in the special needs area as well as educational reform. High turnover and a declining number of special education teaching graduates also contribute to a favorable job market. Requirements: In general, most states require at least a bachelor's degree in special education along with certain examinations in order to be licensed. Some states insist that special education teachers obtain a master's degree in a specialized education field. Salary: Earnings for special education teachers coincide with the pay scales of general education teachers. The 1996-97 U.S. average was $38,436.
